Thanks for the detailed and helpful explanation. In our workflow, if it's not a file everyone should be able to access then it shouldn't be in the project directory! But maybe that's just a consequence of our current very manual system of file management. > You said you were deleting and > re-adding files under different names. No, I was renaming them in the Finder, and this caused Subversion (or Versions) to see this as one deleted file and one added file for each renamed file. (And I see that renaming them in Versions does the same, but in this case the old file is marked for deletion and the new file marked for addition automatically.) > I wonder if there are tools similar to source code control but for > media projects? Adobe's Version Cue was little-used and is no longer in development, to the annoyance of those who did use it or were considering it. There are a couple of other offerings but they're very expensive. One group is attempting to develop a front-end for Subversion to integrate with Adobe's Creative Suite software, but it's not out yet and wouldn't be sufficient for us (we also use Office and other programs, so I was looking for something more general).
